There are many types of driveway surfaces to consider and one contemporary trend involves the use of resin. In order to better appreciate why this could prove to be a perfect solution for your driveway, let’s take a look at Resin-Bound Materials in a bit more detail.

What is a Resin-Bound Surface?

As the name might already suggest, this type of surface is comprised of an aggregate (a mixture of small stones) that is bound together by a durable resin. When still wet, the material will be evenly distributed over an existing driveway surface (such as concrete or asphalt). Not only is this an extremely hard-wearing surface, but it can be used to visually tie together other elements of your property.

What are the Benefits of a Resin-Bound Driveway?

There are several unique advantages that a resin-bound surface can offer. As mentioned previously, the use of a resin compound ensures that the surface will be able to stand up to a fair amount of wear and tear. Some other benefits include:

  • There are many different stone colours to choose from; ideal if you wish to provide your driveway with a bit of personality.
  • As resin-bound materials are slightly porous, pooling water will not present a concern.
  • Resin-bound surfaces are slightly flexible, so they are less prone to cracking due to temperature changes.
  • As this material can be laid without the use of joints, it is perfect when dealing with awkward driveway shapes or angles.
